Hi guys - can't send it to you without an email. At least I don't think I can. Does anybody know if I can attach docs here?? I don't host anything myself to link to it. It's also a massive file (didn't;t think about that when I selected the highest definition!). I'd about 60mb so will be via wetrans...

This is an old post I know, but hopefully it will appear on search and still be useful.

I have now scanned my original asq10 manual so PM me if needed.

Had a Prodigy & Source (both great) and currently own a reissue MiniMoog D...However, from what I've seen and heard the Grandmother looks a great buy.

Shalebridge shipped ROM's to me in Liverpool,UK for a very reasonable price a couple of months back - postage probably accounted for most of the price! It's fantastic that somebody is looking at this legacy OS - buy with confidence.

I wouldn't..Not had a Pro Mars but they are supposed to be nice. However based on UK prices (£1000+ each for 106 and Polysix vs £1000-1200 for Promars) I think economically it's a bad deal.

I think the best way is to think about how many Oscillators you can control and then times per voice....So yes the OB8 has 16 oscillator chips inside which manifests itself in the architecture as two oscillators x 8 voices.

Old thread I know but invaluable.....just got a VS and ordered a load of replacement switches 'just in case' - cheers.

Not sure if it will make a difference but for clarity the ex8000 isn’t exactly the same....no arp on th ex8000 for example.

If MMT8's work for you just stock up on spares! I just bought two black ones (last ones) and whilst the price has gone up it's still reasonable (ish)...I have heard people rave about Squarp Pyramids being analogous but I've no first hand experience.

Hmmm....might be interested in the VS rack....what are the issues? (and how much do you want?)

Sounds like a TR808 to me......they used a CR78 on the first album (Night Boat for example) but little evidence of it on Rio.

I trimmed my Jaspers 140-3r to around 100cm using a basic pipecutter...the ones you just rotate around the tube until it cuts through.....worked fine!

Years later I know but in the interests of anybody with a similar question doing some research.....

The spacey sound is a Jupiter 4 preset 'voice' layered with a synth string pad. As somebody mentioned it is indeed also used via a slow arp on the beginning of 'Nightboat'.

Bought and sold a few in the UK...bought one for £300 in 2002 and sold one last year for around £1250 I think. They do seem to be creeping up in value but I think £1500-1600 is a decent start and be happy with anything aver £1400. If listing on ebay chance your arm at £1800 but invite offers....

I love Battery too and still have Battery 3 working fine.

I wish it had a sequencer so I've tried Spark and Revolution but Battery still sounds superior.
